The Daily Balance

I have been looking forward to eating this dish all week. I was at the grocery store and spotted some almost-ripe mangoes. I snatched one and hid it from the Mister all week (muahaha) waiting for it to reach it’s perfect ripeness. I guess today was the day.

Side note: have you ever had an un-ripe mango? Not good. Disgusting actually. I was overly impatient awhile back and soon realized how important it is to wait. How do you know when a mango is ripe? Easy, read this.

Anyway, this morning I enjoyed my mango in a bowl of yummy goodness.

It's all about the Mango

Mango and banana love

Goodness included:

• 1 cup vanilla yogurt
• 1 mango
• 1 banana
• Sprinkling of GoLean

So light and refreshing! I imagined that the cold rain outside was really just some tropic thunder

Stay warm!

I’m crossing my fingers that the husband and I have good weather this weekend!

I will NOT have access to a computer or internet until Monday, so I won’t be blogging for ‘Solve It’ Saturday. If you don’t know what ‘Solve It’ Saturday is, click here. This is actually a good thing, because it will give all of you another week to ask your questions. Remember, if you don’t want to reveal your identity in asking your question, just request that I keep it anonymous.

What piece of fruit have you had the displeasure of eating too early, before it was ripe?

   Mango!! I just read all about them in Vegetarian Times – great fruit to eat! The only thing I have eaten that was bad was old grape tomatoes. YUCK. They exploded into fizzy nastiness – bleh.

   Fingers crossed for good weather, indeed!!

   Mmm yummy! This snack sounds great.

   I hate eating bananas when they’re not ripe. I like them a little soft with some brown on the skin Also avocado is REALLY gross when its not ripe.

   Mango is the best! My husband is Filipino, and he simply loves mango over any other fruit.
